Using C4D Fields Everywhere and Why You Should Use the Group Field

Helloluxx covers creating elaborate effects using Cinema 4D’s Fields in multiple places and managing them with the Group Field.

Employing fields can solve many animation and visual FX challenges. HelloLuxx shows how you can use Cinema 4D’s Fields in various places in your 3D scene. “These could be selection tags, vertex maps, deformers, mograph objects, text objects—the list is long,” says HelloLuxx’s Tim Clapham.

The tutorial’s workflow allows you to control multiple animated effects with a few primary fields, making it easy to quickly change everything in one place, thanks to the group field. “You can also combine the Group Field with additional fields to remap, invert, and generally manipulate the data.” Tim notes.
